New Sign at Assiniboine Forest
The Rotary Club of Winnipeg Charleswood is pleased that the new Assiniboine Forest sign has been installed at the corner of Grant and Chalfont. The installation is an important part of the plan for enhancements at the main entrance to the Forest, which will see additional signage (history, trail map), an interpretation area and plantings. The new sign profiles the colouring used to identify the trails in the Forest. Thank you to club member, Iain Scott, for the photos. 
 
Bridge of Hope Ukraine 
We are all seeing the current devastation in Ukraine and the current refugee crisis. The need is continuing to grow and many Canadians and people around the world are considering ways they can help.

There are reports of families currently serving in military needing safe temporary homes for their children to stay in. This is the main focus of our project as these children are left vulnerable and in need of loving safe homes to take refuge in.

The Rotary Club of Winnipeg - Charleswood is working to bring Ukrainian children safely to Canada through the Bridge of Hope Ukraine – Family Support Project. All funds raised will be used to help Ukrainian families.

Donations can be made by clicking this Link:  Bridge of Hope Ukraine.

Thank you for your generous support including donations of furniture and household items for those who have arrived in Winnipeg!

 
 
Friends of the Assiniboine Forest Campaign
Posted on Apr 05, 2021
 
 
The Charleswood Rotary club has been stewards of the Assiniboine Forest for over 30 years. Together with the City of Winnipeg Naturalists’ office, we carry out annual maintenance and upgrading to Assiniboine Forest. 
 
The forest is a unique jewel in the suburban Winnipeg landscape that is cherished by its visitors, and community. Comprised of over 700 acres of primarily undisturbed wilderness, Assiniboine Forest is one of the largest urban nature parks of its kind in Canada. 
 
The goal of our Assiniboine Forest Long Term Planning study was to provide a clear direction for the stages of forest management and to explore enhancements to improve the visitor experience at Assiniboine Forest while maintaining the ecological sensitivity of the site.
 
Only through careful management can the future preservation of the Assiniboine Forest be reasonably assured. The Charleswood Rotary Club enhancement initiative will initially focus on general trail maintenance, a cross-country ski trail, improvement to signage, the addition of a new trail in the eastern section of the forest, parking alternatives to Chalfont and Grant and enhancing accessibility to the Sagimay Trail.
 
Longer term projects will be considered. The Charleswood Rotary Club as Stewards of the forest will continue to work to secure the forest’s future.
